‘GoT’ director reveals a battle that would’ve made fans happy but was never shot

Washington: After an eight-year-long journey, the HBO show ‘Game of Thrones’ left behind an undeniable legacy as one of the most popular series. From months of anticipation and excitement to being shocked and sad with unexpected deaths, the show gave its fans a world full of imagination.
And while it’s been weeks since the show concluded, everyone is still reeling over a lot of things that happened in the last season and the discussions surrounding the series don’t seem to end.
During an interview with the Filmmaker Toolkit, as cited by E! News, director Miguel Sapochnik, the man who helmed season eight’s episode three titled ‘The Long Night’, the very big and dark, White Walker battle episode, said there was a big scene that would’ve delighted fans but was never shot.
“It was a much bigger sequence than we shot. And there were many things that happened that people would’ve been so happy to have happen, attacks of direwolves, crazy stuff,” he said. “At some point you’re like, 50 direwolves attacking an undead dragon does not a good movie make,” he added.
Jon Snow’s (Kit Harington) Ghost was the only direwolf seen at the battle. But imagine if Bran (Isaac Hempstead-Wright) had done his thing and gotten a bunch of direwolves there to save the day.
The other direwolf that was there was Arya Stark’s (Maisie Williams) wolf Nymeria. Her direwolf assembled a pack of her own when she popped up in season seven.
